      I think one's taste is a personal thing..as we mature musically we leave others behind as we move outwards. In the end, we are often so far out that no one is where we are..perhaps a few like Rick rocking along in ecstasy, on the hill in the far distance.

      I can feel Rick's enthusiasm but not for this type of tune. I admit that the melody is interesting but for me there are too many notes here, I don't have a specific feeling rather just something like "this is crowded". Obviously it's a matter of taste.

    The Köln Concerto and Belonging were my introductions to KJ as a teenager back in the 90's. As a Norwegian, the fact that the rest of the quartet is Scandinavian and that Belonging was recorded in my hometown of Oslo was kinda cool, too.

    I like how Rick continues to put out good info that makes you appreciate music even more. He hasn’t devolved or sold out into one of those RUclipsrs that just compares and Epiphone to a Gibson or tells you what new amp that you don’t have is the best in the world. Keep it real, Rick. And thank you.

    Man, that was actually pretty solid singing, hitting the right notes and the melody is hard as f... Even more impressive is how much you're in love with music and that happiness just radiates through the screen. It's so fun to watch you turn into a kid like that

      This takes me back-I recall singing along to this as well! There’s something about this insane melody that makes you want to sing along with it. Btw I pretty much nailed it now it though I had trouble with the range :) One melody I’ve always had trouble nailing is the synth outro to Steely Dan’s “King of the World.” Rick will appreciate that one.

    I too never get tired of this song/album. I learned of this album when I was around 20. I am 68 now. A colleague who happened to be Swiss turned me onto Keith Jarrett around the time this album came out. I fell in love with the sound this band had. Watching Rick Beato review and teach all the intricacies of musicians fascinates me. In honor of my friend who introduced me to jazz, I am subscribing to Ricks' channel.

    Ok Beato, I'm a 69 year old bassist, prog rock, blues rock ect but I was also Stevie Ray Vaughan's close friend. A few months before his death Stevie put me in charge of finding him a jazz teacher. I had checked out North Texas State University, known for their Stan Kenton library and Lab Bands but before I could solidify anyone, he passed away. I see now how much info is available now. I will end this by saying, I purchased your Beato book and The Tim Pierce Masterclass. I'm really happy this information is now available at our fingertips. Youngsters have no idea how much easier it is to learn now I notice a decline in feel that I attribute to step by step instructions. Anyway, I am now crossing the bridge from blues to jazz because quite frankly it's the last bastion of art in most music nowadays. BTW, I had this conversation on feel in current music with Doyle Bramhall Sr shortly before his demise. Keep up the good work Professor!

    Thank you Rick for reminding me that Belonging was the first record that I ever got. It is still my favorit one. I am so happy about your enthusiasm as I share it with you. You can imagine this video is the very best that I saw ever.
    Seeing you playing this music on the piano inspires me to try the same in my own. Thanks a lot!

      YES! I get this with most songs from 2000/2001, lots of hiphop songs from those years also have incredibly well produced tunes, think about the intro of “Ja Rule - Put It On Me”, just viibe that intro, ja rule just starts rapping too darn early! 😂 but also the refrain with backup vocals of “where my girls at” by 702. I guess I also like songs that have some mantric element to them, that’s why in my opinion the best Beatles’ song is ‘Words of Love’. However the songs that really stick with me because they reach the depth of my feelings are melancholic songs like “All Good Things Come to an End” by Nelly Furtado, especially those what I call ‘blowing sand sounds’.

    This sort of video can help jazz become slightly more popular. Rick has a massive audience and loves to share his enthusiasm. He repeats parts of the song that pop fans probably just wouldn't like, but with the breakdown and explanation become more palatable. When jazz fans ask how to get more people listening to their music, this is the answer.
